The 360's I've ridden seemed to have no problem revving and downshifting. I can't understand why the 300 Prairie outperforms the 360; they both have low tech 2 valve engines, but the 300's I've driven definately work better than the 360. That engine should be able to maintain 40mph up an upgrade.[/quote]

the only reason I can figure the 300 has more on top than the 360 is the difference in engine compression.according to kawasakis website in the spec section the 300 has 9.0:1 and the 360 has 8.3:1,also the gear ratio for hi gear in the trans is 3:1 for the 300 and 3.5:1 for the 360.seems to me they should have given the 360 some more squeeze.if anyone figures out the primary flyweight thing please post it.because it really sucks when the old lady pulls you on a flatout and she knows it irratates me. there is no replacement for cubic displacement

 

How is it after all of those mods?

 

check my reply on this thread dated fri aug 4,i gained a little top end,maybe 5 mph on a flat grade,45ish next time I will go for the bigger engine
